So I was thirteen, and living in England when that came out. They advertised it on TV with the shot of the woman pissing herself in the middle of the high street. I was really, quite concerned about nuclear war for really quite some time.
- NeedMoreTea 7y agoI was twenties. The era government sent everyone the "Protect and Survive" leaflet and showed the public information films, Threads gave everyone nightmares. It stuck with you, unforgettable, people were talking about it for ages after. The grimmest, bleakest TV ever made. Quite remarkable considering it obviously had a budget of pennies. Yet I'd also highly recommend it. "The Day After" is a schmaltzy Hollywood feel-good family movie in comparison.
